I suggest to use plenty Vaseline or baby oil every day, good for dry skin. I also use it on my face & legs every day & night. No wrinkles on my face. The new Dr's show on TV even said to use the above, on their show. I've used it all my life. People ask me what do you use on your face!

My daughter has dry white patches on her skin and behind her ear sometimes. Her doctor says she has eczema and prescribed an ointment and told her to use cetaphil lotion and to use Dove or Ivory soap since they are mild.

The dryness goes away and comes back from time to time. The dry spots fade a little once treated but they did not totally disappear but they don't have the dry look.

You need to see a doctor. If you waited 2 years and it hasn't cleared up, it may be a fungal infection or even worse. I don't want to scare you, but you need to seek professional help. Don't mess around with home made treatments. If you are loosing pigment also, it may be something simple, or not.

I've said it before & I'll say it again; any unusual skin conditions, it more than likely is from candida. If it's outside, it's inside, too & can cause a huge amount of problems. Not to scare you, but there have even been studies, where candida is at the center of cancer tumors. That that's where it starts. Finding a way to buffer your body, is a good start. Digesting your food well, is a good idea, too. Low stomach acid is the the place to begin. For the immediate future, use white vinegar on the spots. Just a drop, rubbed in, but look on www.earthclinic.com to find out how to fight candida.

I just got back from the dermatologist yesterday, and I have the exact same thing. I have had it for a couple of years, and it has been on and off. My family doctor thought it was fungi etc and prescribed me different creams. None worked. I was then sent to the dermatologist, and he said it was eczcema. Cetaphil lotion and something that starts with a S and says gel which is a cleanser was what was prescribed to me. Hope this helps.P.S sorry I forgot the name of the cleanser.
